About the author
After decades of technical and spiritual training, Richard Heath became interested in megalithic astronomy and its numerical skillset. He has written five books on the sacred use of numbers. In
Matrix of Creation he explores those found in the planetary world, in
Sacred Number and the Origins of Civilization he explores those important to ancient civilizations, and in
Precessional Time and the Evolution of Consciousness he examines the numbers that define the important Ages of the world. In
Sacred Number and the Lords of Time he provides an alternative history for megalithic astronomy, and in
The Harmonic Origins of the World, he explains how the megalithic discovered planetary harmony through counting lunar months, thus explaining why ancient texts were informed by harmonic numbers. He lives in the Preseli Hills of West Wales.

Additional text
"All in all, Sacred Geometry frames the foundation of the universe, physical building, and human life in an entirely new way. By focusing on the mathematics of that time, rather than the abstracted forms used now, a new perspective emerges. I am open to the possibility of a higher intelligence imparting the template for humanity to grow, and I enjoyed how this book pushed the boundaries of what’s commonly accepted in many fields, from religion to science to math."
